If you got 90.8 percentile in JEE Main and belong to the OBC category, here's what you can expect regarding admission into IIITs (Indian Institutes of Information Technology):

Chances of Getting IIITs at 90.8 (OBC)

IIITs like:

IIIT Una

IIIT Nagpur

IIIT Bhagalpur

IIIT Bhopal

IIIT Ranchi

IIIT Manipur

IIIT Agartala

IIIT Kalyani

You have good chances in lower or newer IIITs in non-core branches like :

IT

ECE

CS (in newer IIITs)

Hello Ritik,

With 90.8 percentile in JEE Mains and OBC category , your chances of getting an IIIT depend on:

1. Home State Quota: If your home state has IIITs, your chances improve there.

2. Preferred Branches: CSE and ECE are highly competitive. You may get lower-demand branches like IT, Mechanical, or newer IIITs.

3. Previous Year Trends: Based on past data, 90.8 percentile (OBC) might get:

  • Lower branches in newer IIITs like IIIT Una, IIIT Agartala, IIIT Bhopal

  • Possibly ECE or other branches in IIITs with high closing ranks for OBC

    4. Rank Estimation:

Your expected OBC rank is likely between 35,000–40,000 , which is on the edge for core branches in top IIITs.

I would recommend you to use JEE Mains College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank or percentile.

Hello!!

To give you a clear idea about which IITs you might get with 90.8 percentile in JEE Main (OBC category), we need to keep a few things in mind:

1. Estimate Your Rank:

With 90.8 percentile in JEE Main and OBC category, your category rank is approximately between 30,000 to 40,000, though this can vary slightly year to year.

2. JEE Advanced Eligibility:

You need to be among the top 2.5 lakh candidates (including all categories) in JEE Main to be eligible for JEE Advanced.

With 90.8 percentile and OBC reservation, you might be just at the borderline or slightly below the cutoff for JEE Advanced eligibility.

If you're eligible for JEE Advanced, then your performance in that exam will determine your IIT admissions, not JEE Main.

3. Admission Possibilities:

IITs do not admit based on JEE Main percentile – only through JEE Advanced.

NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs take admission based on JEE Main. At 90.8 percentile (OBC), you may get:

Lower branches (like Metallurgy, Chemical, Civil) in newer NITs (e.g., NIT Mizoram, NIT Meghalaya)

IIITs and GFTIs like IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Una, etc., in lower branches

What You Can Do:

Check if you're eligible for JEE Advanced (the official list will be released by NTA).

If yes, then prepare hard for JEE Advanced – that’s your real gateway to IITs.

If not, look for options in NITs/IIITs through JoSAA counseling with your JEE Main score.
